Elementary School
Student learning is best done when it’s authentic - relevant to the ‘real world’ - and transdisciplinary, where the learning is not confined within the boundaries of traditional subject areas but is supported and enriched by them. We aim to engage children in ways that meet children’s academic, social, physical, emotional, and cultural needs. We want our young people to be happy, engaged learners who are keen to come to school.
Elementary Curriculum
Through the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP) we provide opportunities for students to develop an understanding of essential concepts, skills, knowledge and attitudes that will enable them to be lifelong learners. Our students are actively involved in authentic inquiry-based learning across all the curriculum areas. Students develop confidence in their abilities, think for themselves, question, express their opinions and respect the opinions of others. As students learn to reflect on their learning, they become critical thinkers. We encourage students to voice their ideas and to take action to improve the school and the community. Student achievement and progress is shared through regular assemblies, parent conferences, open houses and activities aimed at making the school a stimulating center for the community.
